About the festival

In Women Texas Film Festival’s four-day August event, we showcase the range and depth of female driven visual stories. Established and emerging female filmmakers and content creators will show that girls aren’t just made of sugar and spice. They got grit and gasoline, too.

WTxFF screens films that have a female writer, director, cinematographer, and/or editor.

The festival also hosts Q&As with filmmakers, panel discussions, bands, exclusive parties, and a gala night with filmmaker red carpet.
